Need a New Extreme Sport? Try Wingsuit Basejumping...(video)

Just when I thought us ultrarunners were the craziest, Marco Denson sends me this link about Norwegian wingsuit basejumpers who "got bored" and decided to fly 100+ mph within a few feet of huge cliffs. DANG.

Man that stuff is crazy, but you can tell how good they are. Daredevils with a minor in aerospace engineering and thermodynamics to figure out all the correct angles and trajectories. You only get to make 1 mistake in that business...

About Me

I'm a technology entrepreneur who took up trail running and triathloning back in 2001 to get off the work treadmill and see a bit more of the outdoors. I also love to eat, so the exercise helps me justify those extra helpings. ;oP I'm always interested in learning more about trail running - please comment and link away!
